You should talk to Christina Nelson's sister. She's a missionary in Africa where AIDS is rampant. That's a horrible thing to say but think about it this way:

1. Take precautions, get all of your shots, avoid mosquitoes.
2. Would you rather die of malaria in The Peace Corps knowing that you took a risk and were finally doing something adventurous or would you rather be sitting at your computer typing at your livejournal another year from now mulling about how you wish you'd taken a risk and done something you'd always wanted to do?

Why are you still reading this? ;)

that's the thing, Rosie, avoiding Mosquitos is much easier said than done. and the medical precautions is actually a complicated thing for me.

How can it be that complicated? I think you ought to find someone who's done the Peace Corps before and ask them how they were able to avoid dying of malaria. Having someone who's actually been in the field will help assure you more than anything I can say.
